We're going out in about half an hour, and instead of coming up early to make cards I decided to use up some apples and make a German Apple Pancake for breakfast - but when I saw these Toucan ornaments at Empicial Style, I couldn't pass up the chance to make a quick toucan card .
A2 base, sponged with orange.
BG Lime Rickey, with a fancy Fiskars corner punch.
Just Beakause inked with markers and cut with Labels 10. I sponged round the edge with green while still in the die and then stamped the leaf around the edges, then after removing from the die I sponged the very edges with orange.
Button, ribbon and some punched leaves - plus a wobbly eye for last week's Friday Free4All.

Cute card! Love your little toucan. I can "taste" that German apple pancake ... I'll bet it tastes just as good as the ones my G'ma used to make. Mmmm.
